A WORD OF ADVICE WITH Cuold Quigley here's an ancient ayurvedic T herb we call withania. The Sanskrit name is ashwagandha. The herb exudes strength and vitality. Ayurveda is one of the most ancient systems of medicine known today. It is a holistic science of balance and health. Disease is seen as an imbalance, and its treatment involves diverse strategies to restore optimal function and balance. Withania is a complex herb and is classed as an “adaptogen’. ‘What that means to us is that it balances the negative effects of chronic stress on blood sugar, stress hormone as well as brain and memory function. It’s an important consideration for those who are physically and emotionally exhausted, especially as part of recovery from illness. Withania quite simply reduces ‘our response to stress. ‘The basic units of our nervous system are called neurons. Neurons are cells that receive, process and transmit information through electrical and chemical signals. Withania might work by protecting neurons from damage. but the exact method of action is still being explored. A*busy” mind is a common factor in poor steep quality. Withania has a gentle sedative action, tending to lower blood pressure and heart rate. Like many of these “ancient” herbs, withania is a valuable asset to coping with the stress of modem life.
